So many people wander through life accidentally.
The phrase “dead at 40, buried at 80” rings true for many people who have failed to plan.
I guess in one sense, those of us without a plan are the biggest winners because we always get what we want - nothing!

Many people tell me I am very lucky because of the things I have been able to experience in life but I want to reassure you that none of them were accidental. NONE OF THEM!
Years ago in the 1990s my wife and I were used to writing business plans for companies we purchased or started. We became so accustomed to going through that process that we forgot about our own goals.
After struggling to get to grips with what we wanted out of life we finally went to Whistler and locked ourselves in a room all weekend and wrote out our own plan.
What transpired was a plan that talked to us about what we wanted out of life. About how we wanted to raise our children, help poor people around the world, travel and experience some cool things. We committed our goals in writing in the form of a personal business plan.
To date, that plan is well on its way to being accomplished.
As a keynote speaker, I see all the time how people yearn for inspiration. As a result, my business partner Andre and myself are launching a new project where you can share your inspirational stories with us. It will be a free service where you can benefit from other people's inspirational stories.
The project is called Codex Moments and in a few weeks we will be receiving two beautiful leather bound hand made books. The books are a record of places we want to go, people we want to meet and things we want to do. The website will be a vehicle to share with you the successes of the project!
If you need some inspiration, head over to www.codexmoments.com and register.
